Description

We aim to add support for recursive calls to bash scripts within Jenkinsfile configuration, similar to what is already supported for GitHub Actions. The implementation should be straightforward, but before proceeding, we should first refactor the bashparser module to completely decouple it from GitHub Actions-specific implementations. This will make the parser more general and flexible for future integrations with other CI systems like Jenkins.

Research direction

Start by reading src/macaron/parsers/bashparser.py and the existing GitHub Actions support referenced in the issue. Trace how Jenkinsfile configurations are parsed and how recursive bash-script calls are currently represented. Done means the parser is decoupled from GitHub Actions-specific behavior and recursive bash calls in Jenkinsfiles are supported.
